Fellowship

Thank you for your interest in postdoctoral training in Infectious Diseases at Yale School of Medicine. The Program Director of the Yale ID Fellowship Program is Dr. Manisha Juthani-Mehta. The Associate Program Director is Dr. Ann Fisher. The Fellowship Program Coordinator is Mary Ellen Wilson. All inquiries regarding the ID Fellowship Program should be directed to Ms. Wilson via email at maryellen.wilson@yale.edu.

Our training program is designed to prepare postdoctoral fellows for careers as clinicians, clinician educators, and investigators in the discipline of Infectious Disease. We offer a clinical/clinician educator fellowship that is two years in duration for individuals who intend to pursue clinical or educator careers in infectious disease. We recruit three fellows per year to this track. The first year is focused on inpatient ID consultation. In the second year of training, fellows can focus their clinical and research efforts on HIV, HIV/Hepatitis C co-infection, transplant ID, and hospital epidemiology/antimicrobial stewardship. We also offer an academic/research fellowship that is three (or more) years in duration and includes one year of full-time clinical training and two (or more) years of clinical or laboratory research. We recruit two fellows each year for this track. Research training is supported by a training grant from the National Institutes of Health. Infectious Disease fellows may participate in the Investigative Medicine Ph.D. Program, the National Clinician Scholars Program, and other didactic training programs within the Department of Medicine as part of their research training. Coursework is also available through the Yale School of Public Health.

The section of Infectious Diseases at Yale School of Medicine is committed to the training of academically oriented Infectious Diseases specialists. The Infectious Diseases section at Yale provides unique opportunities for fellows to:

develop diagnostic and management skills of an Infectious Disease consultant

develop and complete patient-oriented research projects

investigate the pathogenesis of infectious diseases in laboratory or translational research projects

train clinician educators by participation in the FAME (Fellows as Medical Educators) program

Infectious Diseases research fellows at Yale are introduced to and can choose to participate actively in the research endeavors of many laboratories and clinical research programs. This page was designed to provide you with an overview of training in Infectious Disease at Yale. If you would like to learn more about our program, we urge you to submit an application and visit us. Faculty members and current fellows would welcome the chance to talk with you about the opportunities in Infectious Disease at Yale.

How will my information be used?

When you express interest in a specific study, the information from your profile will be sent to the doctor conducting that study. If you're eligible to participate, you may be contacted by a nurse or study coordinator.

If you select a health category rather than a specific study, doctors who have active studies in that area may contact you to ask if you would like to participate.

In both cases, you will be contacted by the preferred method (email or phone) that you specified in your profile.
